Re: LX vs P1-zp vs Spotmatic

Ah, April Fool's day, huh? Are you offering to pull
apart your MZ-M for me?

 Hello
 For helping your manual focusing, may be you can
 buy a MZ-M viewfinder
 piece
 and put it in your MZ-30 ?

Can you also fit the the MZ-M viewfinder (focus screen) into the an MZ-5n? I

Thanks

  Hi everyone,
 
  Yesterday I pulled out my Spotmatic SP (with broken
  lightmeter) and caressed it lovingly. I had forgotten
  about a few things I took for granted that my MZ-30
  doesn't have. The Spotmatic will always be my baby
  (sorry Mariah Carey).
  1. The manual focus screen - My MZ-30 only has the
  outline of a square in the viewfinder which is about
  as helpful as trying to focus through frosted glass.
  And I have discovered I prefer manual focus. I take
  lots of closeups with my close-up filters and
  auto-focus doesn't work at all.
  2. That wonderful feeling of winding on the film by
  hand - nothing beats it and my MZ-30 is auto-wind.
  3. I love the feel of the leather half-case in my
  hands.
  4. The lightmeter needle. I can't get used to these
  LEDs.
 
  So I am thinking of getting an LX as well, and trying
  to get my Spotmatic fixed. I know no.1 above is
  covered, but what about no.2? I don't expect to get
  no.3, but that would be a bonus.
 
  And I also hear lots about the P1-zp. I know nothing
  about this camera. What does it have going for it? The
  LX and P1-zp seem to have their separate fan-clubs. I
  don't think I have heard from anyone who raves about
  both.
 
  Please help.
  Jody.
